It's important to keep in mind that analyst forecasts are not recommendations, nor are they investment advice.
Joseph Moore, a top 3% analyst from Morgan Stanley maintains WDC with a strong buy rating and raises their WDC price target from $54.00 to $70.00, on May 23, 2025.
Morgan Stanley's Joseph Moore raised their price target on Western Digital (NASDAQ: WDC) by 29.6% from $54 to $70 on 2025/05/23. The analyst maintained their Strong Buy rating on the stock.
Moore said they hiked their price target after Morgan Stanley, without materially changing its assumptions, tweaked its model to account for higher buybacks after last week's $2B share buyback announcement.
Assuming the 40TB HAMR ramps on-schedule, the analyst told readers that Seagate's Analyst Day presentation suggests some risk to Western Digital's market share in CY 2026 - a key factor to watch.
That said, however, Moore added that the data growth trend will benefit Western Digital because the company is well-positioned to capitalize on the "once-in-a-generation Data Center build-out opportunity" in spite of its aging technology.
